Welcome to Cruthú Nua!
I wrote this poem a few years ago but thought I’d like to share it today. :)
Easy does it
No need to be so hard
What are you afraid of?
Soften those edges
Sand them down
Don’t be brittle
and hard to get along with
You weren’t always this way
What happened to your heart?
Be gentle
and easy in your ways
Everyone needs it
and it might make their day
Be kind
Be tender
It's rare nowadays
Choose to be soft
even if it’s risky
Be gentle
even if they want to fight
Be kind to them
Even they need your love
Smooth down those hard edges
And let the beauty of your warm heart shine.
Thank you for reading my short poem!
I hope you are having a blessed weekend.
The Lord sustains us.
Blessings to you & your loved ones!
